Kari Smith Said: Wonderful! ( Apr. 28th 2010 )

Honest Opinion - hacker. Said: Owned the original on CD & Vinyl ( Apr. 17th 2010 )
*IF* you already love this album, and the cost isn't going to stop you eating... buy this. The remix/re-mastering is excellent. I loved this album and this is a total refresh for me. Sounds wonderful.
Is the book / DVD worth the money...? I don't know. I've read most of the book which was interesting. Not watched the DVD yet. Packaging is nice.
I don't know how else to buy the remixed album (I got this box set for $28 on an Amazon 'today's deals' and feel that for the money the remix was worth it. However, $28 isn't much money to me (sorry - don't know how else to put it)).
U2fan8 Said: U2 at their zenith ( Jan. 30th 2010 )
The Joshua Tree is one of the best albums U2 has ever made. Bono's voice was at it's finest, deep and passionate. The music, utterly ethereal (as on Streets and With or Without You), or hard-hitting and angry, as on Bullet the Blue Sky and Exit.
The remaster definetly does the album justice. There is a book, five picture post cards (which I have framed), plus all the B-sides from the time period and a never-before-released concert DVD from Paris, July 4th, 1987. Also on the DVD are two unreleased music videos, one of Red Hill Mining Town; the other an alternate version of With or Without You. The DVD also includes a funny documentary of U2 and their travels across southwestern America.
If you are a U2 fan, and in particular love the Joshua Tree, get this remaster right away. It is well worth the money.
Luis A. Urrego Ruiz Said: The Joshua Tree experience ( Nov. 13th 2009 )
Finally after two years waiting, I have this work on my hands. I found it greater than I though. Listen the b-sides CD once and again, and again, give me the old taste of U2, full of energy and desires.
Joshua A. Burke Said: U2 Live-The reason why they are on top ( Mar. 28th 2009 )
U2 is a great band and with every great band comes bad albums (Zooropa and Pop). Now, take the rest of their catalog and you have some amazing songs there, my friends. This box set is great-nice packaging, a great concert to boot. I hope they release a concert when they re-issue THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE. Nothing beats U2 Live. Some bands are good on albums and OK on stage but U2 is a band that takes the crowd on a 2 hour journey. Not many bands can say that, yes? Hey, they are still on the journey of music.
